I was never officially diagnosed, yet I was to doctors for over 25 yrs with symptoms and never an answer, just the one I was beginning to believe, "It's all in your head, you need something to calm you!"
My sister was officially diagnosed 7 yrs ago last March and I followed her in gf in July. Our dad went gf 3 yrs ago this coming Nov--he is 72. Sad that we have to be so sick for so long.
My son Joe has gained 100# in the last 5 months, his thyroid has nearly stopped working, he has fits of anger, heart palpitations, GERD and asked his doctor to test him for celiac and type 2 diabetes. His doctor simply said, "It's not necessary at this time!" His doctor will not like meeting his mom on Friday. I will be in Michigan for a wedding and Joe wants me to see his doctor with him.
I am a little unhappy with doc's right now, he may not want to meet me!
